Code Intelligence

Seek to:00:00 / 

Code Intelligence gives Linear Agent controlled access to your codebase, turning repositories into shared product context your whole team can use.

With Code Intelligence, Linear Agent can reason about how your product actually works, not just what’s captured in issues, projects, and docs. Ask how a feature is implemented, why something behaves a certain way, what a change might affect, or which technical constraints should shape a plan or customer request without digging through the codebase or interrupting an engineer.

PMs can write sharper specs, Support and Sales can answer technical questions with more confidence, and Engineering can investigate bugs, regressions, and unfamiliar parts of the system faster.

To set up Code Intelligence, a workspace admin should:

  1. Install the GitHub integration and enable code access
  2. Turn on Code Intelligence in AI Settings

From there, admins can choose which repositories to include and whether access is limited to members with existing GitHub permissions or available to the entire workspace.

Code Intelligence is now available in public beta for Business and Enterprise plans, and free to use during the beta period. See the docs for more details.
